[rancid] Error in logs after new install

Hello,

I'm running Rancid 2.3.2a6 on Ubuntu LTS 7.04.  This is a first time install
for me and I've been able to fight my way through most of it (Linux is
fairly new to me). I've got Rancid up and running, and it logs into the
devices correctly (save one but I'll figure that out).  

It does not, however, write the configs to the
/home/rancid/var/"mygroup"/configs/"device-ip" folder as expected.  When I
view the logs at /home/rancid/var/logs/, I get:

cvs status: move away `10.1.0.32'; it is in the way
cvs status: move away `10.1.0.33'; it is in the way
etc...

There are about 20 HP switches I have listed in the router.db.  I've deleted
the files and used rancid-run again, but it errors out the same way each
time.  When I view the CVS repository, there is no config.  The directory
and file name for the switch is there, but when checking "Head", it's blank
:(.

I know I'm missing something stupid but I can't figure out what it is.
Permissions?  I've done the chmod 600 /home/rancid/.cloginrc and chown: -R
rancid:rancid /home/rancid.

Thanks in advance for helping a newb.
